Sophia Antipolis, France

Nicox SA (Euronext Paris: FR0013018124, COX), an international ophthalmology company, today announced that the transfer of the listing of the securities issued by the Company from the Euronext Paris regulated market (compartment C) to the Euronext Growth Paris multilateral trading facility (the "Transfer”), will be effective as from the trading session of April 28, 2023.

The application for the Transfer was approved by the Euronext Listing Board on April 24, 2023.

As of April 28, 2023, the new mnemonic code of Nicox’s shares will be ALCOX. The ISIN code remains unchanged: FR0013018124.

This operation aims to allow the Company to have its securities admitted to trading on a market more commensurate with its size and market capitalization. Indeed, the Transfer to Euronext Growth enables the Company to reduce its obligations and constraints and, as a result, reduce the costs associated with its listing, while maintaining the shares’ tradability on a financial market.

The Company will continue to provide accurate, precise and truthful information, by disclosing any privileged information concerning the Company to the public, in accordance with the European Regulation on Market Abuse ("MAR”). The provisions of the MAR Regulation will also remain fully applicable to the Company, with respect to the disclosure of transfers of securities by directors.

The Information Document relating to the Transfer is available on the Company's website www.nicox.com, in the Investors section.

The Company is assisted by Bryan, Garnier & Co. as Listing Sponsor in connection with the Transfer.
